## Background Pain is the most common challenge that most hospitalized patients complain of and is influenced by several patients, nurses, and institutional-related factors. Most studies in Ethiopia on pain were focused on surgical illnesses only. ## Objective To assess nurses’ pain management practice and associated factors for admitted patients at Comprehensive Specialized Hospitals. ## Methods and materials : A multi-center institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted at the five randomly selected Comprehensive Specialized Hospitals of the Amhara region from May 01 to June 01, 2022. A multi-stage sampling method was employed to select a total of 430 nurses and patients for whom the nurses were responsible. Data were collected using standard self-administered, structured, and checklist questionnaires from nurses, patients, and patients’ charts respectively. The modified Bloom’s criteria categorized the overall practice as good, moderate, and poor. Data were checked, coded, and entered into Epi-Data version 4.6 and exported to SPSS version 25. An ordinal logistic regression model was applied, and variables with a p-value < 0.05 with a 95% CI in the multivariable analysis
